"Closet expansion!! I don’t normally do reviews, but I had to share my experience with this company. OUTSTANDING WORK! Dan and Joe demolished 2 walls and rebuilt them in one day including sheet rock. From there Kyle took over the project spackling, painting and hanging the barn door. All of their work was super neat, clean, and meticulous. Frank was my salesman, and he was great. Price was very fair. John’s communication was constant and always appreciated. I also appreciated that he walked the job before and after to make sure I was happy with what I was getting. Better than any other contractor I’ve used in the past. Ten out of ten, a must hire company. "

"Unlike other reviews, our experience with Jeff Bowen @ Bowen Contracting left us very frustrated and disappointed due to 4 months of never showing up to build a deck, lots of broken promises, lack of truthfulness and finally when we lost trust in Jeff and felt he longer had integrity as a contractor. Jeff is a contractor who over-promises and under delivers- and I would stay away from him unless he could commit to a schedule and finish date that included penalty clauses for unintended delays. For us we signed a contract with Jeff on 11/4 to build a simple 14x20 deck, paid Jeff his $500 scheduling fee and even provided our credit card number so he could purchase materials and expedite the delivery process. Over the course of 4 months, we were informed by Jeff that materials were ordered, then would be ordered, then again they were ordered (even though my credit card was never charged). We stressed the urgency to him to order materials due to possible covid lead times or the possibility of items being discontinued, to no avails. We asked Jeff to pour footings before the temps dropped and he kept promising to come out "tomorrow" or "next week", but he was always a no-show with no follow-up about why he/his team never arrived on site. After 4 months of delays, the final straw was Jeff sent us a text saying- I have "good news, bad news". The bad news was even though Jeff informed us materials were ordered, he never ordered anything.... not deck boards, rails, lattice... anything. We were told, if you want work started, we would have to pay we pay an add'l $2,400 over the signed contract (or really $2,900 over the all cash alternative) due to material prices increasing. We asked for material quotes from before and after and got silence. Since the delays in ordering materials were not ours, we informed Jeff that we would be enforcing the contract rate and his response was he could not do the work for us at that price. If a contractor has you sign his legal contract, and doesn't honor his side- he's lost all his integrity. I'm sure if we called him up and said- hey Jeff, we have good new bad news- and the bad news is we're going to pay you $14,000 instead of $16,000- that wouldn't fly with him and he would enforce the contract on us. Due to zero work being performed at our home in nearly 4 months, we had to contact Angie's List to initiate the contractor complaint process, as well as, terminate our contract and provide legal notice to Jeff/Bowen Contracting that he was in Breach of Contract. Today, we finally received back our demand for full refund ($500 scheduling fee) for a job that was never scheduled. Jeff may be a nice guy, but buyer beware. Jeff is not a man of his word and gives you the run-around and that is going to be his downfall in business."

"It was amazing 🤩 I made a call to MAS and Harold and Lauren were at my home the next day. Harold, Pete and Gabrielle were extremely hard working and so courteous and such a joy to work with!! I actually was so pleased with the deck that I asked for a quote on vinyl fencing. I would strongly recommend this company for any work needed. It means so much when the actual owner of the company comes and does the work alongside his employees. I did happen to see one horrible review from someone who was 100% 😑. It was actually the only bad review so clearly it was not the fault of MAS but rather the idiot that posted such an incredibly inaccurate and incorrect review. I will definitely recommend this company to my family and friends and take it from me, I can really be a PITA when things are getting done at my home but not once was I ever meant to feel like I was being a PITA. The customer service skills of Harold and Lauren and their team is remarkable!!!"

The timeline for raising a sunken living room varies depending on your specific project. Factors affecting the schedule include the size of the area, the complexity of the work, and whether you're installing new flooring throughout adjacent rooms. Your contractor will need to remove existing flooring, build up the sunken area, allow time for materials to set properly, and then install finished flooring. Be sure to discuss the expected timeline with your contractor during the planning phase.
Raising a sunken living room is a significant structural modification that should be done with proper engineering considerations. When performed correctly by qualified professionals, the project shouldn't negatively impact your home's structural integrity. However, improper installation could lead to issues like uneven floors or inadequate support. This is why hiring an experienced and licensed home remodeling contractor who understands the structural requirements and building codes for such modifications is recommended.
Yes, contractors can raise sunken living rooms with concrete slab foundations. The process involves pouring new concrete to fill the depression or building a wood-framed floor system over the existing slab. For a 400-square-foot room with a six-inch depression, filling with concrete would cost approximately $2,400 before adding finished flooring. The approach your contractor recommends will depend on your specific situation, including the height differential and your preferred finished floor type.
When raising a sunken living room, you'll need to consider how the new flooring will transition to adjacent areas. Your options include extending the new flooring throughout connected spaces for a seamless look, using transition strips between different flooring types, or selecting complementary materials that create an intentional design feature. Discuss these options with your flooring professional to determine the best approach for your home's specific layout and your aesthetic preferences.
